Lovely puzzle, really fun how some lines were just there to make it look nice and symmetric. Keeps you on your toes

formatting for the constraints is a bit unclear, especially for a willpower puzzle, could be a lot clearer
@WatermeRen After reading through the rules again, I continue to find them as clear and direct. I do acknowledge that there are new concepts that I have introduced. However, paying attention to, and understanding the ruleset is always best when approaching one of my puzzles. Thanks much for playing and commenting. Peace to you. -Will Power

Are blue lines equality lines? All it says in the rules are numbers may repeat on them, so they may as well not be there in the first place?
@asp1310 They are not equality lines. Blue lines are there for two reasons: First, the picture would be incomplete without. I know that there are several people that don't care about that, but I do. Second, the kropki dots that are on the corners of cells specifically say that they only apply to the line that goes through them (not the other diagonal). This would rightfully leave people at a loss if the blue lines were eliminated. Thanks for playing and commenting. -Will Power
Ah no that's totally fair! I totally missed the second part. I personally love decoration so long as it's not intrusive, but have noticed you specifically do usually point out when lines are just for decoration - so that's why I wanted to clarify this time, because you didn't. But like I said, I didn't notice that some of the mechanical notation only worked with some of those lines being there!
